Just a Few Original Sin books by Huss & McClain

This feature is for short reviews, reviews of books in a series where it might feel repetitive, or (as Michelle suggested) books I was too lazy to write a “real” review for. I binge read the Original Sin books over the holiday break, so today’s reviews are the books from that series.

This book may be unsuitable for people under 17 years of age due to its use of sexual content, drug and alcohol use, and/or violence.

Sin with Me is the first book in a four-book contemporary romance series by New York Times bestselling author, JA Huss, and veteran actor and writer, Johnathan McClain. Each full-length novel will release three weeks apart starting on March 6, 2018.

***Two broken people in a city fueled by sin.

Maddie isn’t looking to be saved. She knows the only person you can count on is yourself. Her moral compass might not point true North these days—but at least she’s still standing.

The Military taught Tyler about loyalty. Being there for your brothers is the only thing that matters—but when it mattered most, he wasn’t.

She’s got a ticket straight to Hell. He’s already been there and back.

She needs to win. He just needs to stop fighting.

Some sins scar your soul so deeply, you'll never be the same.But this Devil in disguise might just be the angel he needs to forgive himself.

Well Huss and McClain are clearly a great writing team! I enjoyed the hell out of this. The characters are great and I was anxious to understand what was hiding in their past. I love the way Mattie/Scarlet is someone with a lot of tenacity, despite her current situation. But gah what a cliff! Very thankful I can jump right into the next book. Narration was also fantastic.

Maddie doesn’t really owe drug lord, Carlos Castillo, money. So she hadn’t taken his threats seriously. Until now. He wants it, whether she owes it or not. And if she doesn’t have it in six weeks he’s gonna take her as payment instead.

Tyler would save the world if he could. That’s a fight that lasts forever. And if there’s one thing he’s good at, it’s fighting. So if Maddie thinks she’s gonna deal with an insane drug lord on her own, she’s crazier than he is.

She’s got a debt she can’t pay. He’s got more money than he needs.She’s not gonna fall for his charm. He’s gonna make sure that happens.

They’re destined to be together. Even if Maddie doesn’t know it yet.Sometimes your soul mate isn’t who you’d choose, it’s who you need.

Good thing you don’t get to choose.

Loving this series! Huss and McClain are a great writing duo and have produced some gut wrenching plot twists, along with some very creative sex scenes. Going to get right to the next one.

And Maddie Clayton is going to collect. This time Carlos and Logan have gone too far. People are dead, lives have been changed, and she’s had enough. Plus, she’s got the Devil on her side, so when an enemy turns into a friend with an idea of how to take Carlos down, she’s in.

Tyler Morgan has been fighting back his whole adult life. He’s ready for anything when it comes to payback. But endangering Maddie can’t be part of the deal. Unfortunately for him, once Maddie gets an idea in her head, there’s no stopping her.

Her debt has been paid in blood and she wants revenge.

His fight is still there, but now he’s got more at stake than himself.

The end is coming.

But even if they win against Carlos, they can still lose each other.

So. Good. I love the characters and that they don’t just magically manage to fix every problem in their lives. In fact, they kinda do the opposite lol. It wrapped up really nicely though and I was surprised to find that there’s another book in the series after the ending of this one. But yeah, I’m ready to read it!

Maddie’s dealing with the fallout of her choices. Safety and happiness are relative, elusive things she’s desperate to have. But they will forever remain out of reach until the demons of her past are laid to rest.

Tyler’s mistakes resurface to haunt him and he’s just beginning to understand that money can’t fix a broken relationship. He must open his heart and search for answers he’d rather not find.

She wants peace in a world made of chaos.

He wants to rid himself of a lifetime of guilt.

They’re soul mates, but that’s no guarantee.

They’ll need to rely on each other to find their happily ever after.

Because the fight never ends—it just gets easier with someone at your side.

I like the way this book really brought the characters to a more complete resolution. I was really satisfied with the way the last book ended – it could have been the end of the series for me. But actually, now that I’ve read this book, I can see why they felt the need to give us more of a conclusion. Mattie and Tyler had some loose ends to tie up and I love the way Huss and Mclain showed them really moving past their internal struggles, now that their external battles seem to be over.
